Courtney Evans Powell is an American painter whose work explores the quiet significance of the natural world. Through intimate paintings of native trees, wildflowers, birds, and insects, she seeks to illuminate the extraordinary beauty found in ordinary places.

Influenced by a deep reverence for nature and the tradition of classical realism, Powell uses time-honored painting techniques to create careful, contemplative studies of the landscapes and wildlife of Western Pennsylvania. Her paintings invite viewers to slow down, look closely, and rediscover a sense of wonder in the familiar.

Before turning her focus to fine art, Powell worked in production design and photography, experiences that shaped her sensitivity to composition, light, and visual narrative. She lives and works in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with her husband and son.
